Sound Healing & Energy Work in Rishikesh
Sound healing is the easiest way into this work, because there is nothing to learn and nothing to get right. You lie down on a mat with a bolster under your knees, and Himalayan bowls, gongs, chimes and hand pan do the rest. Most people drift somewhere between sleep and awareness — which is exactly where the practice does its work. Alongside the sound sessions we run reiki, pranic healing and inner child work with practitioners who trained in these lineages properly. Every session runs 60–75 minutes, mats and blankets are provided, and you need bring nothing but yourself.
Tibetan Sound Baths & Ayurvedic Therapies
The second half of our healing timetable leans towards the body. Tibetan sound healing and voice activation work with vibration and the throat; abhyanga massage and Ayurvedic marma therapy work with warm oil and pressure points, given by therapists trained in classical Ayurveda rather than a spa weekend. The subtle body session sits between the two, mapping what the other practices are actually touching. Come to one when your shoulders will not drop, or when a week of travelling has caught up with you.
Daily Meditation & Yoga Nidra Sessions
Meditation here is guided, not left to you to figure out in silence. Yoga nidra is where most people start — you lie down, somebody talks, and the body goes somewhere the mind usually will not let it. Blue star and chakra awakening nidra work with visualisation; dynamic meditation moves first and sits after, which suits anybody who cannot sit still on demand. Japa meditation uses mala and repetition. Every one of them is open to complete beginners, and nobody is asked how long they have been practising.
Tratak, Metta & Transcendental Meditation
These are the sits for people who have already found the practice useful and want to go further. Tratak works with a candle flame and unwavering gaze. Metta loving kindness turns attention outward, towards people you like and people you do not. Transcendental and super conscious meditation work with mantra and stillness, while tantric yoga nidra takes the nidra format somewhere considerably deeper. None of them require the earlier sessions first, but most people find they land better after a few weeks of sitting.
Kundalini Yoga & Chakra Practices
Kundalini is taught carelessly in a lot of places, and the results show. Here it is taught slowly, with the kriya explained before it is practised and a teacher watching what actually happens in the room. Chakra breathing and chakra awakening work through the energy centres one at a time; kriya chakra and kriya kundalini yoga add the classical sequences. Kula kundalini is the group practice, and it is usually the loudest hour of the week. Come rested and come having eaten lightly.
Tantra Yoga, Mantra & Shiva Shakti Flow
The tantric side of the timetable, which has almost nothing to do with what the word suggests in the West. Kundalini awakening and kundalini yoga build the base; mantra yoga works with sound and repetition until the chanting stops being something you are doing. Shiva shakti flow pairs the practice with movement, and works well for anybody who finds seated practice hard. All levels are welcome and modifications are offered before you have to ask for them.
Ecstatic Dance & Movement Sessions
The loudest end of what we do. Ecstatic dance runs barefoot with no talking and no steps to learn — a good sound system, a dark-ish room, and however you happen to move that evening. Nataraj dancing follows the classical three-stage format: movement, stillness, then rest. Contact dance works in pairs and is gentler than it sounds. Acro yoga and qi gong sit at the more structured end, where there is technique to pick up. Nobody watches, nobody films, and nobody cares what you look like doing it.
Kirtan Evenings & Community Gatherings
The gatherings that turn people who came for one class into regulars. Kirtan evenings run with live harmonium and tabla, and you do not need to know a single word to join in — the call and response takes care of that. Community dinners are eaten together at one long table, which is reliably where strangers stop being strangers. The men’s circle and yogis meeting are the quieter ones, closer to conversation than practice. International Yoga Day fills the whole courtyard once a year.
Daily Yoga Classes for Every Level
The core timetable, running seven days a week and all of it drop-in. Mysore vinyasa and ashtanga flow are the strong morning practices, self-paced with a teacher moving through the room. Hot yoga and arm balancing are for people who want the work; body flow and meditative yoga are for the mornings when you do not. There is no course to book first and no level to clear — come for one class, come for a month, or come every morning for a year.
Yin, Restorative & Sunrise Yoga Flows
The rest of the mat timetable, weighted towards the slower end. Yin and restorative yoga hold postures long enough that the connective tissue actually responds, usually with bolsters and no rush at all. Yin yang balances the two halves in one session. Sunrise flow and sun and moon flow are the early practices, on the terrace while the valley is still quiet, and power yoga is the one that will leave you needing the brunch afterwards. Mats, props and blankets are all provided.
200 & 300 Hour Yoga Teacher Training in Rishikesh
Our teacher trainings are multi-week, residential, and Yoga Alliance aligned. The 200-hour course is the foundation — asana, pranayama, anatomy, philosophy and teaching methodology, taught over three or four weeks depending on the format you pick. The 15-day intensive covers the same syllabus for people who cannot take a month off. The 300-hour courses assume you have already trained and go considerably further into practice and teaching. Kundalini streams are available at both levels. Accommodation and sattvic meals are included, and group sizes stay small enough that your teaching is actually watched and corrected.
500 Hour, Sound Healing & Kirtan Teacher Training
The advanced and specialist end of our training programme. The 500-hour courses combine the 200 and 300 hour syllabi into one continuous training, in yoga or kundalini, for people who want the full certification in a single stay. Alongside them we run a sound healing teacher training course covering bowls, gongs and the theory behind them, a reiki healing training with attunement, and a kirtan training workshop for anybody who wants to lead the music rather than sit in the circle. Dates, fees and syllabi differ for each — message us and we will send the details for the one you are interested in.
